Very surprised that House/Powers of X didn't make your list!

I both had no interest and had never read an X-men comic prior to it and it instantly hooked me in while also not punishing me for not knowing who 75% of the characters were. I regularly let my pull list stack up a few weeks before reading but these X books were "read as soon as I get home from the store" books.

I found more people talking about it than any book that has been out since I started reading. Most weeks, the talk at my comic store when I'm in there is about anything but comics as I try to steer it to other interests knowing the guy that works there already has to talk about them for hours a day, but we found ourselves spending an hour every Thursday going over the latest issue in this series.

One thing I will say, though, is that I've been pretty disappointed with the follow up and relaunch. Straight from issue 1 of X-men I went back to feeling bad about reading for not understanding the history of these characters, and by only reading the main title I've missed out on most of the actual interesting things that are happening in relation to Krakoa. It's been very disappointing.
